Trading rules you can evaluate
A trading idea with rules for entry, exit and position sizing. Review the historical tests and losing periods, then run the free Market demo in MT5. No income or profit promises.
Strategy at a glance
Trend and volatility checks filter the entry setups. Individually calculated initial stop-losses, volatility-based targets and a holding-period limit manage open trades. The EA does not average into losing positions or increase lot sizes to recover losses.
Market conditions & limitations
The approach looks for directional changes that pass its filters. Whipsaws and sudden gold-market moves can cause losses. The H8 reference setup is deliberately slower than intraday scalping; it does not imply profitable behavior on every gold broker or timeframe.
Position sizing & risk
The fixed-reference test profile uses 1% of 10,000 account-currency units: 100 units of planned initial-stop risk per newly sized trade. Current-balance percentage risk and fixed lots are also available. A stop-loss is not a guaranteed execution price or a loss cap. Gaps, slippage, fees, pending-order changes and simultaneous positions can increase actual losses.
